The dryland field was planted on May 18, 2022 and harvested on October 19-21 and 24, 2022 with planted plot lengths of 17 feet.
In the image above, the blue rectangle is the approximate location of the full irrigation field, the yellow rectangle is the approximate location of the partial irrigation field, and the red rectangle is the approximate location of the dryland field.
The field was irrigated for one hour from 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. every Friday evening. The row spacing was 30”. In-field measurements (flowering time, height data, and combine yield measurements) use the range-row system defined in the sheet ‘Layout (Original)’ of the files ‘Scottsbluff Hybrid HIPS - Summary.xlsx’ and ‘Scottsbluff Inbred HIPS - Summary.xlsx’. In the data, these range-row assignments were dropped in favor of using the range-row assignments listed in the QR codes and used by the ear phenotype and NIR grain composition measurements, which better capture the spatial distance between plots where there are border plots. The geographic location within the field of a plot by its plot number is the same in both layouts, but the range-row numbering is different. The range-row system used in the QR codes and the data is depicted in the sheet ‘Layout (Modified)’ of the files ‘Scottsbluff Hybrid HIPS - Summary’ and ‘Scottsbluff Inbred HIPS - Summary.xlsx’, and shown in the image below. ‘Fill’ is equivalent to ‘Border’ at other locations. The field was planted north to south and together, the inbred and hybrid fields are 625 feet north to south. The fields were planted on May 19, 2022. A combination of 10-34-0 (NPK) liquid fertilizer and urea were applied to meet the nitrogen treatment level requirements, as shown below.
The plots were 10 foot (7.5 feet planted), 2-row plots.
Based on yield data and grain protein content, it was determined that the labels in the QR codes for the high and low nitrogen treatments were reversed. The QR codes in the data reflect the content of the original QR codes, and the nitrogen treatment variable reflects the actual level of nitrogen the plot received. The plots were 25 foot (22.5 feet planted), 4-row plots and the middle two rows were harvested.
## Crawfordsville These fields were planted on May 11, 2022 and
harvested on October 7, 2022. Both the inbred and hybrid fields had 3
nitrogen treatments (High, Medium, and Low). The field coordinates were
41.199066, -91.486991. The nitrogen treatments were applied on June 2,
2022 using 32% UAN.
These fields were planted on May 23, 2022 and harvested on October 16, 2022. Both the inbred and hybrid fields had 3 nitrogen treatments (High, Medium, and Low). The field coordinates were 42.012376, -93.737301. The nitrogen treatments were applied on May 21, 2022 using urea.

This is the weight of one ear from the plot in grams prior to shelling (i.e. with the kernels attached to the cob). This corresponds to the ear with an ear number of 4 from the original dataset. It is abbreviated as ‘earWt4’. This information for Lincoln hybrids, Missouri Valley hybrids and inbreds, and some of the North Platte location, was taken from the file ‘2022_Hybrid HIPS - Post Harvest Data - Prototype File.csv’. Information for the remaining ears from North Platte and the Scottsbluff hybrids were taken from the file ‘NP-SB_2022’.
This is the length of the cob in centimeters of one ear from the plot after to shelling (i.e. with the kernels detached from the cob). This corresponds to the ear with an ear number of 4 from the original dataset. It is abbreviated as ‘cobLen4’.
